Dress In what Makes you feel your best

As high school seniors, the time has come to capture those final moments of adolescence before stepping into the next chapter of their lives. Senior portrait sessions are not only a rite of passage but also an opportunity to showcase your grad’s individuality and style. For boys, finding the perfect outfits can be more of a task than it should be, but I’m here to help. I've curated a list of five outfit options that strike the perfect balance between formal and casual, ensuring they look their best in front of the camera.

1. Classic Suit and Tie

For a more formal and official grad look, opt for a well-fitted suit in a neutral color such as navy, charcoal, or black. Pair it with a dress shirt and a coordinating tie or bowtie. Honestly, I know that it’s likely a rarity that your high schooler is in a suit but this is a rare occasion. It’s pretty nice to commemorate this super special occasion with an outfit that’s equally as 

2. Nice Casual

Blend style and comfort with a really nice casual outfit that exudes effortless charm. Pair dark-wash jeans with a tailored blazer and a stylish button-down shirt. Add some personality with a patterned tie or pocket square. This look strikes the perfect balance between formal and relaxed, allowing your personality to shine through while still looking polished and put together.

3. Polo and Chinos

Ok, so yes, polos are associated with a preppy aesthetic but they totally create a polished yet relaxed outfit with a classic polo shirt and chinos. Opt for a well-fitted polo in a neutral color, paired with tailored chinos or khaki pants. This outfit has a more laid back feel and is perfect for a casual yet not too casual style.

4. Athletic

Highlight your athleticism and active lifestyle with a sporty outfit choice. Opt for fitted joggers or athletic shorts paired with a breathable performance tee or hoodie. Layer with a lightweight bomber jacket or varsity jacket for added warmth and style. Finish the look with sneakers for an overall athletic look.  

5. Uniquely you

Dressing uniquely you is all about incorporating elements that reflect your personal style and individuality. If you have a favorite jacket that you've worn over the years or a beloved baseball hat that has become a part of your signature look, don't hesitate to incorporate them into your senior portrait session. These items carry sentimental value and tell a story about who you are and the experiences that have shaped you. 

Behind every stunning portrait lies a journey of collaboration, creativity, and heartfelt connections. From the initial consultation to the final ordering appointment, I am there to walk alongside you every step of the way to guide you through a portrait experience that is as unique as you are.
